Hello,

I new to raising pet birds.

I have baby rosy faced (peach faced) lovebird that I got 2 weeks ago. I was told it is pallied opline. But I'm not what that means. I know the opline has to do with color on the face and head. I will upload pics.
Also I want to know the age of the birds as well if you can tell. I have had it for two weeks now. The last picture is when I first got it. Now it is starting to flap its wings and jump.

Thanks in Advance

urmm... Is that a parrotlet?

Do you not have any pictures of the face, or just the back? To me looks like you may have an albino but without seeing the eyes it's hard to tell

Hi, if you read what I said, it is a rosy faced lovebird also called peach faced. It is not an albino look at tail it is gray. and if you see the wings when it was smaller they were gray but when it grow a little the color faded.

As I said it is a pallid opaline, I jsut don't know what it means.

oh yeah can see much better there. Pallid Opaline is just the name used for that colouring. Essentially pallid means Pale and Opaline is an "off-white colour" so essentially a "pale off-white peach-faced lovebird"

Kind of like how you get all the different colours of Green cheek conures and other birds
